 The government has extended and amended the First Time Home Buyers Tax Credit. If you are a first time home buyer or if you qualify for the new tax credit contact me today and I can put you in touch with a local lender that specializes in FHA, VA and USDA loans. Not sure if you qualify for the tax credit? I have provided a link that will give you the information you may be looking for. www.federalhousingtaxcredit.com I have also provided links to web sites for home owners that are not sure if they need to sell their home and may be up side down on their mortgage. These sites provide information that may help you determine if you qualify for a loan modification such as www.MakingHomeAffordable.gov. If you are facing foreclosure the government has several web sites that can also guide you, one of them is www.hud.gov/foreclosure. |

1. Make a list of all of the amenities that are close by in the neighborhood you are considering as your new residence. Keep in mind what distances and routes to each of these places are acceptable and what are not.
2. Determine what the best features of the neighborhoods are. This is especially helpful if you are deciding between a few different neighborhoods. Are there parks nearby?

Are there quiet areas, streets, culs de sac?
Are the people friendly in the neighborhood?
Is the neighborhood clean? Yards, streets, parks?
Are there nice trees and foliage?
Do the lots have large or small yards?
Are there walkways and are they easily accessible?
Is it a safe neighborhood?
What are the market values of the homes in the area?
Are there many houses for sale?
How long ago was the community developed?
What is the average age of the people in the area?
Are there families with small children in the area?
What is the proximity to schools?
